Meningococcal vaccine refers to any of the vaccines used to prevent infection by Neisseria meningitidis.[1] Different versions are effective against some or all of the following types of meningococcus: A, C, W135, and Y. The vaccines are between 85 and 100% effective for at least two years.[1] They result in a decrease in meningitis and sepsis among populations where they are widely used.[2][3] They are given either by injection into a muscle or just under the skin.[1]
’’’腦膜炎雙球菌疫苗’’’（Meningoccal vaccine）指的是專門預防[[腦膜炎雙球菌]]感染的疫苗[1]。不同的疫苗可能對部分或以下幾種腦膜炎血清型有效；分別是A、C、W135、和Y等四種。疫苗至少可以在兩年內提供大約85%-100%的防疫效果。只要廣泛讓民眾接踵疫苗，它們是確實可以降低[[腦膜炎]]和[[敗血症]]的發病機率[2][3]。疫苗可以藉由[[肌肉]]或是[[皮下注射]]的方式給予[1]。
The World Health Organization recommends that countries with a moderate or high rate of disease or with frequent outbreaks shouldroutinely vaccinate.[1][4] In countries with a low risk of disease, they recommend that high risk groups should be immunized.[1] In theAfrican meningitis belt efforts to immunize all people between the ages of one and thirty with the meningococcal A conjugate vaccineare ongoing.[4] In Canada and the United States the vaccines effective against all four types of meningococcus are recommended routinely for teenagers and others who are at high risk.[1] They are also required for people travelling to Mecca for Hajj.[1]
[[世界衛生組織]]針對發病率中等或更高甚至是常態性爆發的國家提出建議，應[[定期施打疫苗]][1][4] 。而對於低發病率的國家，則建議讓高風險族群保持免疫狀態[1] 。目前在[[非洲腦膜炎帶]]的努力目標是希望讓一到三十歲的人們可以獲得免疫，所以目前腦膜炎A型[[混合疫苗]]施打一直在進行[4]。在加拿大和美國，世界衛生組織建議應讓青少年以及高風險族群定期施打可對抗四種不同亞型腦膜炎雙球菌的疫苗[1]。該組織也同樣希望要前往[[麥加]][[朝聖]]的旅客可以施打疫苗[1]。
Safety is generally good. Some people develop pain and redness at the site of injection.[1] Use in pregnancy appears to be safe.[4]Severe allergic reactions occur in less than one in a million doses.[1]
小心注意總是沒錯。有些人在施打疫苗的當下就開始出現疼痛與紅疹等症狀[1] 。在懷孕期間接受疫苗注射看起來是安全無虞的[4]。[[嚴重過敏反應]]的發生機率小於一百萬分之一[1]。
The first meningococcal vaccine became available in the 1970s.[5] It is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines, the most important medication needed in a basic health system.[6] The wholesale cost is between 3.23 and 10.77 USD per dose as of 2014.[7] In the United States it costs 100 to 200 USD for a course.[8]
第一劑的腦膜炎雙球菌疫苗出現在1970年代[5] 。作為[[世界衛生組織基本藥物標準清單]]的藥品，同時也是在[[基礎醫療]]中極具重要地位的藥物[6]。2014年，一劑的量販價約介於3.23到10.77美元間[7] 。在美國，一次的療程約需花費100到200美元[8]。
